The Manchester Art Gallery is a public art museum in Manchester. It emerged from the Royal Manchester Institution, founded in 1823, and is located in three interconnected buildings in the city center. The collection predominantly includes European art with a focus on works by English artists. There is also an extensive collection of handicrafts. The museum also has numerous exhibits on fashion history, which are exhibited in the Platt Hall mansion south of the city (source: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manchester_Art_Gallery).

A visit to the gallery is free and extremely interesting and, in my opinion, worthwhile because it is very complex. Visitors can expect various exhibitions that moved me very much, especially the paintings from different eras.

Tue-Sun 10am-5pm, free admission. Popular cafe. Collection hung in a very mixed way: contrasting old and new. Interesting!
